Background and Discussion:

Currently, we pay for 8 positions through the DWI/PTI program fees.  We plan to expand our PTI program to include additional Alternative Resolutions Programs to assist with reducing the backlog caused by Hurricane Harvey and the Covid19 Pandemic. These positions are necessary to assist with the increased volume of work.

 

Expected Impact:

Funding is available in FUND 2261 using program fees to fund these positions.  We are not requesting funding from the General Fund.

 

Alternative Options: None

 

Adding these positions will continue to help address the criminal backlog that continues to negatively impact Public Safety.

Alignment with Goal(s):

X Justice and Safety

_ Economic Opportunity

_ Housing

_ Public Health

_ Transportation

_ Flooding

_ Environment

_ Governance and Customer Service
